CONDITION: NEW 2014 Arcturus hardcover (pictorial boards - no DJ issued), first edition, no printing given. Ages 10+.

Detailed color illustrations by Alles & Lawrence; paper engineering by David hawcock. Text is informative and best suited for probably junior high and up. Wonderful book.

The subjects of the five spreads cover the fundamentals of human history: building and architecture, hunting and fighting, agriculture to industry, writing and printing, and exploration.
